Beautiful Pup, Ken. Top clean build and a very nice decent weathering.

Thank you, everyone.  You are most kind with the comments.

I still have to start my WNW Pup - I'm kinda holding out in the hope somebody (hint, hint) will release decals of the colourful Pup I modelled back in the early 90's, courtesy of Eduard and Blue Rider.
Maybe I should have put these pics on the nostalgia board - however I have little nostalgia for the dreadful flash and thick plastic of early Eduard!! How we have progressed over the last couple of decades!
This was a training machine based at Netheravon in 1918.

Well, there's always the painting option if you like that sort of thing

Your Diamond Pup is a Masterpiece! Considering just how challenging building the kit was I would Say Spectacular!

Sandy, I remember this little beauty from wwi-models.org!  Loved it then, love it now.  Inspired me to buy the Eduard kit back then, but before I could build it, Aeroclub released the injected version of the old vac kit.  Much better than the Eduard kit.
Cheers,
Bud

Wow Sandy, that is one colorful Pup.  A real beauty.

[macsporran]

Thanks guys. You'll inspire me to get back to wwi - less rigging than the old ship I'm working on at present!!

Geezz......A frustrating build but it's finished and up on the shelf.
I did not add the carburetor intakes or the inspection panels on the wings, I'm moving on.

The bottom shot.



Many Pups seem to have a sort of engine turning on the aluminum cowling area. I tried replicating that but maybe a darker base color next time.

Much wrestling but now that it's done, I'm pleased with it.



















Anyway, a sweet little Pup after much coercion.
